Definitely go on an adventure~ I love adventures. ^_^ Do something crazy and fun. Bike across a different continent! I would do that if I had the time/money, but to Canadia did for this year. :D

Or, sail across the Carribean. krissy and I will do this after I graduate from law school. I'm super serious I want to do this. D:< We just need to learn to swim first.

And Wesly, Kaycee, krissy, and I are gonna go backpacking through Europe once Wesly finishes law school! Italy would be the country that I really, really want to hit up in Europe. Top of the line fashion, beautiful country and culture. Venice <3

I also want to hit up South America at some point.

Beautiful country, yes, but overpriced fashion. Also, I wouldnt expect too much of the water in Venice, it'l probably be the dirtiest you've ever seen lol.

Seriously? Book a week in Edinburgh for August if you can. I assure you: Worth it. 8-)

Sure, we plan to go everywhere, if it actually happens. xD It's 3 years from now though, sooo... we're not planning too much, but it's fun to talk about.

Haha yeah, I imagine fashion in Italy would be expensive. But fun to look at. :}~

I hear you like walking around in your underwear when you have company over.

BJ's totally caving. I'm starting to win and now I'm getting excited. I'm gonna start picking a place to look into living and then start job hunting. :D

It's pretty good because it's flexible. If you wanted to travel to, er, Birmingham (?) then you could avoid working for a couple of days.

And BJ could become a busking one man band! :cool:

Supply teaching is... substitute teaching? That sounds like a good plan.

And BJ would make a great one man band, I'm sure. xD

My brother is finishing up his student teaching in a few weeks and will be (or has been) job hunting for an English position. I'll tell you how it goes.

LA is not exotic or interesting.

I'mma look at those links when I wake up tomorrow. That sounds awesome! Except for the Canada part, ewww.

I give this a 2-3.5% chance of actually happening.

Shlup! How To Travel The World For Free (Seriously)

I didn't actually read the article...but it looks like something that could help!

That article is terrifying.

You could join Teach For America or the Peace Corp if you're really looking for an adventure.

Or, you could look into being an Au Pair in another country. Many people would love for their children to learn english, so you would have a leg up there.

Take care all.

Those are good suggestions. I worry that things like that would make it difficult for BJ and I to stick together though. In my pre-BJ years I did aspire to be an Au Pair.

Oh my god, it really is! Maybe I should have read it before posting :erm:

You could totally move to Tennessee (after going on an adventure of some sorts). Meet some crazy back-water people, teach them there youngin's how to speak English, and get rich on an underground moonshine operation!

But in all honesty, Tennessee is one of the cheapest places to live in the US (should the US still be an option), with only the sales tax being high as heck (to make up for the fact that there's no state income tax). As long as you don't go out into some back-water place, it's not that bad; my family used to live in California, and moving out here has proven to be far better than I had originally imagined.

Tennessee is not a real place. It was made up to frighten children into going to bed at night.

The high sales tax with no income tax sounds pretty awesome though.

Here.

World's largest skillet? Colonel Sanders museum? xD

Keep your chicken festival. We have a garlic festival and a strawberry festival.
